i dont think anything martinez does as a hitter is cheap, i just think if you hypothetically put trout in a situation where he was a table clearer for a team that always had guys on, rather than a table-setter with a couple broke dicks batting in front of him, that he'd be better.

Yeah no way would I vote for JD, even though he's having a great offensive year, but I could get behind Betts or Ramirez. Especially if this Trout injury keeps him out or makes him bad the rest of the year. I just can't see giving the MVP to a DH only when there's plenty of good other candidates and that DH isn't on pace to set or get close to HR, BA, etc records. he's on pace for 150 RBI low leverage: 150 wRC+ medium leverage: 208 wRC+ high leverage: 272 wRC+ (.483/.590/.862) with men on base, he's hitting .347/.427/.698 nobody seems to understand how Boston's 50(!) games over, but i have a couple ideas I hate treating awards like you just look at WAR and go "well there you go" so I'm with you there. But Martinez has spent all year with Mookie (.438 OBP and more importantly 39 doubles or triples mostly out of leadoff) and Benentendi (.383 OBP) right in front of him. Meanwhile Trout bats behind Kole Calhoun, who was hitting under .200 as recently as late July, and Ian Kinsler (.308 OBP, got shipped off ironically to boston at the deadline.) It's no secret why trout gets "walks instead of XBH." But anyway i hope people do keep voting against him so he'll pull a bonds and roid up and really break horsefeathers for a decade.

i think i'm totally on board with this, and i might go a step further to make it really scorching and say he might not be top-5 for me at the moment did you know: Trout has worst clutch score in baseball right now no horsefeathering way is martinez and mvp over trout, even though holy horsefeathers martinez is horsefeathering good. but im down with betts or ramirez.

he was like thiiiiis close to saying horsefeathers it and joining the celebration. look at that lustful look -
"Time makes fools of us all" - The Kyle Schwarber Thread
imb replied to Sammy Sofa's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I'm not real sure what to think going forward. his WAR is skewed a little by the defense which you probably can't expect to rate this high moving forward. If you think the shift is responsible for his low BABIP then this is probably best case scenario unless he can cut 6-7 percent off his k rate. -
So this guy sucks right? defense trending down offense trending down has a million babies what other things do you hate about addison russell
-
the fact that he didn't even waver in his belief that that thing was gone really ramps it up

The Grand Slam today was right at the bottom of the zone. first thing i thought too -
horsefeathers you
-
get this, i was streaming it and right after kintzler gave up the single that made it 3-0 my wife (not knowing I was watching the game on my laptop) asked me to lay down on the couch with her and watch fucken TOMB RAIDER. So, thinking I was going to get laid, I went for it. Not only did I not get laid, i had to watch tomb raider and I missed the bomb lmao
-
aesthetically was that the best bat flip+run around the bases in team history edit forgot to add the fucken thing went 440 feet lol. i gotta think that was it
-
he didnt touch home either it's fine
-
GONNA BULLPEN THE horsefeathers OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS BABAY
-
oh man i just realized joe put kintzler in because this is his old team lmao horsefeathers
-
im not really gonna complain about the call because we should probably try to hit the ball out of the infield or something but damn
-
has one review gone our way this year
-
he safe
-
give us this one
-
Are we sure we’re still at our best with him at ss? i mean im sure duke can find some metric 18 layers deep to prove that he should stay but to me he probably gets traded or DFA'd or something before he hits FA. his bat keeps getting worse and so does his defense. pretty shitty combo
-
what the funk how was that not out on the street, are you kidding me
-
look at this guy's goatee lol. did he forget the puka shells too? no popped collar?
-
of course it's horsefeathering russell at bat
-

-

-
